Z he Government Explains Why All Ire
land Was Proclaimed.
LoNpoN, July 18th. In the House of Commons
this evening Morley asked what had happened
70 explain The proclamation of the whole of Ire
land, since the Government had assured the
, House that the law was as well obeyed in some
parts of Ireland as in any part Of Great Britain
Balfour replied that he had no reason to
change his opiuion-that parts of Ireland were
us quiet as any part of England. What the Gov
| ernment had done was not to apply the whole
Crimes Act 10 Ireland generally, but only the
sub-seetions dealing with Tioting, unlawful as
semblies and the destruction of the police.
Sexton asked whether the Executive before
issuing the proclamation, distinguished those
counties where II was necessary to prevent
crime from those where il was necessary to
punish crime.
Balfour said that in every ease in which q
county had been specially proclaimed the proc
lamstion had been issued because the Govern
ment believed in the actual existence of crime
and intimidation.
THE LAND BILL.
The House then went into committee on the
Land bill. Upon taking up the first clause, ex
tending to leasers the benefits of the Act of 1881
Parnell proposed an amendment. The bill, a:
1t stands, gives option to the tenant or landlord
10 make application to Court 10 fix the rent
Parnell urged that thetenant alone should have
the right 70 apply, the period of such appllca
tion to be limited to three years
Balfour accepted the amendment with q limit
of two years and Parnen agreed to it.
Parnell proposed to extend the operation OF
the clause to all leases except those in perpetu-
ity Negatived-I95 to 142. The Government
amendment extending the term to ninety-niue
years was agreed upon.
